Comic Timing Extra Point – Episode 11: Gotham and Constantine

Leave a comment

gotham
Time for a timely Extra Point! Ian is joined by Kris as they give a spoiler-filled review of both FOX’s Gotham and NBC’s Constantine pilot. As usual, we go over what worked and what needs improvement, the characters of both series and where they begin their journey, how the fracturing of DC’s television properties could wind up hurting more than helping in the long run, the pain of forcing references to the comics into a show *WINK*, Batman’s dead parents, and how Gotham is a lot more Smallville than it is Arrow. Oh, and Kris has quick rant about Star Wars: Scoundrels, by Timothy Zahn.

Comic Timing – Episode 158: The Return of Shawn Pryor!

Leave a comment

ShawnAndIan

For the first time in what feels like forever, Shawn Pryor himself is on the podcast! Ian and Shawn discuss the changes that have occurred since last they spoke, including the lessening of Shawn’s involvement with Action Lab Entertainment‘s day to day operations, what the future holds for LOI Studios, how 2015 will be The Year of Shawn Pryor when it comes to comics (or at least we both hope it will be), what working in the comic book industry can do to stress levels and how you can bring said stress back down, and much much more.

That much much more includes general conversation on what Shawn and Ian have been into lately both in comics and television, how important diversity is and will be to comics, and there’s even a small bit of SDCC talk thrown in for good measure, even though this episode was recorded before the show really got underway. Listen in, and don’t be salty! And be sure to listen to The Black Box Podcast, if you have not already done so.

It’s been a few weeks since Brent and Ian got to talk, so they rectify that in this two-man episode! Brent gives his opinion on the X-Men: Days of Future Past movie as well as Transformers: Age of Extinction, while Ian weighs in on Edge of Tomorrow. They also discuss some stuff about the upcoming Flash CW show and what we can expect from DC’s movie slate. And hey, actual comic talk! Batman Eternal, Futures End, New Avengers, Uncanny Avengers, Sex Criminals, SEX, and a few other books are on the docket. Finally, they touch on New York Comic Con’s quick sellout of tickets, and what that might mean for the future of comic book conventions. Give it a listen!

Comic Timing Episode 156 – X-Men: Days of Future Past

Leave a comment

xmen-days-of-future-past

To me, my X-Men! Kris joins Ian for a late night conversation on the latest movie in the up and down X-Men franchise of movies, X-Men: Days of Future Past. We go into what makes this one work, what could have been done a little bitter, the retcon oh the retcon, the diversity of new characters, new meeting old, Rogue’s deleted scenes, the very end of the movie and what’s to come, and the X-franchise trying to play nice with Fantastic Four. And Sentinels outside of a Danger Room sequence! Woo!

We also make random deviations to The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Peter Dinklage’s attempt at a voice-acting career (“That Wizard Came From The Moon“), Tumblr, and more.

    Comic Timing Extra Point – Episode 10: RIP Jamie D

    1 Comment

    RIP Jamie D

    Earlier today, the comic book podcasting community lost one of its founding fathers, and friendliest faces. Jamie Dallessandro of Comic Geek Speak, known to most simply as Jamie D, passed away due to complications from his longstanding battle with cancer. Jamie was a shining beacon of positivity for the community as a whole, and anyone who has listened to him, met him, or considered him to be a friend, will miss him dearly. I sure will.

    This episode has my farewells to Jamie, as well as some extra audio that was recorded during Episode 150, and re-airing of a portion of Episode 137, which was recorded during Baltimore Comic Con with Shane, Brian “Pants” Christman, and Jamie.

    Here’s to you, Shiznit Pimp. We will never forget the part your played in our lives, no matter how small or large it may have been. Uniting the world’s mightiest heroes, forevermore.
